My husband's new Resmed F20 mask won't separate from the headgear

My husband's new Resmed F20 mask won't separate from the headgear
My husband received his new F20 mask and headgear (one package).  He has been using an F20 mask and headgear for a few years, but in this case, the mask isn't detaching from the headgear, but appears to be one unit.  Is this a (new) thing?

That's strange, I received a full airfit f20 kit from lofta last week and it came apart just fine (the cushion from the frame)-can you take a picture please?

I had a loaner a while back and I went to change from medium to large and I thought it was going to break but it finally popped off.

I think I remember someone telling us about this and said in stead of pulling or prying his came off with a twist.

I replied with a quote and pic, as requested, but it seems that I didn't do it right, lol.  I'll try again.  OK, I did it right this time, but I see that the file is too large.

I'll ask my husband if he "did the twist", lol.

Thanks for the replies!

Update: My husband finally removed the mask from the headgear! He removed the frame (with mask still attached) from the headgear and he put the frame/mask under hot water, then he pushed the mask through the hole/port in the frame where the elbow attaches to the mask. It's still a bit tight to remove, but at least it works and it didn't break with all of the effort, lol.
